why is the stella infamous?
The "Stella" is MJ's original Stam - it was one of his first designs and the bag he became most famous for - Before the Stam was introduced, the Stella was one of the most wanted MJ bags and for a while, HTF.
They tried a quilted Stella one season (the first season of the Stam??) with chain handles, but it didn't go over too well - the Stella was already a heavier bag, but the quilted leather & esp chain handles added way too much weight. Seems that after that the Stella just disappeared.........
thanks for the explanation, but I'm aware of the bag, I have one. my question was what makes it "infamous"? I've never heard it referred to that way. Infamy implies a bad reputation, so I was wondering what the OP sees as the negative aspects of the stella? Is it the weight that makes people think of it negatively? the fact that it is/was so coveted? just curious to know why this adjective with the stella.
What color do you want? I am returning a Petal Pink (I think) to Nordstrom Rack sometime soon.
You're able to return MJ bags to the NR? Our NR says that all designer bags are Final Sale - there are no returns and/or exchanges. It kinda sucks - I just bought an MJ bag about a week ago, and this week they had one I really wanted more, but I couldn't exchange the first one.
I have NEVER been able to return a bag to NR... I, too, would love to know where one is that accepts them. One time and I just wanted to swap the bags but they still would not let me...
